As for sound, I don’t think audiophile quality is necessary...

Given you'll need about 10Mbps upstream for 60fps 3K video it seems a little unreasonable not to add on a 320Kpbs (or more) audio stream.

It could make this useful for things like streaming music concerts.

Semi-related note: there's work being done at Stanford to make it possible for remote musicians to play together in an ensemble at low latencies.

JackTrip is the resulting software -- not end-user friendly, but apparently it works.

(Some basic numbers: sounds takes 1 ms to travel a foot, every ms is a foot of separation between musicians, 30ms of latency = 30 ft separation = the max for jamming. So 130ms is not low enough.)

Also, audio quality seems to be more important for the subjective experience than video quality, even in regular video content.
